Thread Name: BS: Men and the porcine element
Subject: RE: BS: Men and the porcine element
As the mother of 3 sons, I refuse to accept that all men are "pigs", pure & simple. HOWEVER, as an intelligent, educated & experienced woman, it is plain to see that many men possess certain "pig-like" qualities. That said, many women also possess qualities that could be described as somewhat porcine, be these associated with the above-mentioned "baser" elements of this earthly existence, a tendency towards gluttony, sloth or untidy personal habits. In other words: there's probably a little pig in all of us!

As for pig-related songs, the all-time best pig song since the beginning of Creation is, without question, "Zuckerman's Famous Pig" from the film of "Charlotte's Web"! My now-10-year-old son used to watch the video constantly, and I never stopped laughing at that song---it's a work of pure porcine genius!

"Oh, wow, look at him now, Zuckerman's famous pig...."
